Kora bio

G'day, mate!  I'm Kora, a 2-year young 35-lb heeler mix, whose name means "companion" in Australia (which is where my heeler roots originate!)  I'm quite the optimistic shelia (that's what they call us young gals in Australia) who is searching for her Forever Family!

Heelers (also known as Australian Cattle Dogs) are working dogs - we were born and bred to herd.  Because of this, I will probably flourish in an active home (swimming & hiking, anyone?!?) that has time to really appreciate just how intelligent and faithful I am.  I'd do better living with older kids and adults as the lil' blokes don't seem to appreciate my special cattle dog talents.  I find this rather ironic as, in Australia, we often refer to children as ankle biters!  Oh well...I'll just have to find a family without any ankle biters on the loose!  Prancing around the house and playing with people are two favorite activities - I especially enjoy playing "fetch" and I can even fetch a ball and place it back oh-so-perfectly into your hand!  I enjoy most dogs I've met but have yet to meet any felines.  I'd appreciate the opportunity to meet all 4-legged potential family members before deciding whether we can be siblings.  I seem to be crate trained as well as housetrained (according to my foster mom) and, true to my intelligent breed, I have quickly picked up basic obedience commands.  Seems that I'll just fit right into your home, eh?

I sure hope you can find the time to come visit with me and appreciate my Australian prance in person!  Just email pawscoadoptions@gmail.com or fill out an adoption application on the Paws & Co. Adoptions website as I'm waiting right now!  Until then...Hooroo (that's slang for goodbye in Australia!)
